Chapter 17 Attractions
At dinner, Father-in-law Jin set up a big table as usual, and when I was hesitating whether to eat or not, Su Jing picked up the chopsticks and said to me very casually: "Eat." β
I whispered, "You're not afraid that they'll spit on you?" β
Su Jing whispered to me: "I was always out and secretly watching while they were cooking. β
Me: "...... You're more boring than I am. β
Su Jing smiled mischievously: "We don't know how long we're going to stay here, so we can't go out to eat every dayβcome, try the royal feast of Heggis." β
I grabbed a steamed fish that had just been served with chopsticks, and said casually, "Why isn't it sweet and sour?" Father-in-law Jin said respectfully: "The small one is written down and let the imperial dining room do it." β
I couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Actually, I just said it casually, and you don't have to treat me as your emperor." β
Father-in-law Jin smiled and said, "Yes, yes." β
Before going to bed at night, Ruoxi still made the bed for me, dried the tea, everything was placed properly, I was lying on the newly bought big bed, my heart was fluctuating, I am afraid that Ma Jiyue's treatment was just like this, it is funny, since I came to the Federation Continent, these two days are the most comfortable two days I have lived, not only the clothes to reach out and eat to open my mouth, but also the mood is also a lot more relaxed, as long as Ma Jiyue does not return to the palace, I believe that the army of Hegis will not be able to mobilize, the Federation Continent has solved the urgent need, all we have left is to wait, The initiative is entirely in the hands of me and Su Jing.
The next day, after eating breakfast, I was wandering around the small courtyard, when I saw the captain of the guard hesitantly entering, it seemed that he wanted to speak but did not know how to speak, I asked, "Are you looking for me?" β
The long-term Ai Ai said: "There are thousands of people gathered at the gate of the palace......
"What's my business?"
"They all clamored to see you and Su Jing, and said that they would never leave if they didn't see anyone."
I wondered, "You're here to compete with us again?" β
The captain said, "It doesn't seem to be all, but it's still the bearded man from yesterday who takes the lead." β
I laughed, "Why can't you guards even settle this little thing?" Usually, if you want to see Ma Jiyue, you also let them? β
The captain was speechless, and I smiled and said: "I understand, no one dared to be so bold in the past, but now the situation is special, they are all their own people, you can't bear to be ruthless, you feel that you have a loss of duty, and you can't stand up to the prestige of Pingshuo." β
The captain sighed, "I thank you for saying that. β
I said to Su Jing, "Then let's go out and have a look." β
We came to the gate of the palace, a row of guards stood in a line guarding the gate, and the Wuyang Wuyang under the steps was full of people, yesterday the big man really argued with the guards again, if someone dared to break into the palace in normal times, the guards would have drawn their swords against each other, but now if they do this again, they will be said to bully the soft and afraid of the hard nest, and they are in a hurry.
I walked up to the big man and said, "Didn't you want to come back in 10 years?" β
The big man didn't care about me, and came to Su Jing with an arrow and said: "I thought about it for a whole day yesterday, even if the famous teachers in the world are willing to teach me in another 10 years, I am not your opponent, and the best way is to learn from you from now on!" β
I laughed, "You actually thought about such a simple question for a whole day?" You're intellectual, so you'd better do something else......"
Su Jing was quite surprised: "How can that happen?" I don't take apprentices. β
Dahan said cautiously: "Because I am a Hegis person?" β
Su Jing said: "That's not it, I never thought of accepting apprentices. β
"Everything has a beginning, and you start with me?"
Su Jing smiled and said, "No." β
The big man persevered: "Then you say, what should I do before you are willing to accept me?" I'm saying this, if you don't take me, I'm not leaving. β
Su Jing thought for a while and said, "That's it, if you promise me never to enlist in the army in the future, I will give you a few tricks, but we are not masters and apprentices." β
Dahan was overjoyed, and said without a word: "I promise that I promise, don't say that I won't enlist in the army, even if you tell me not to eat meat for the rest of my life!" β
I asked the others gathered at the palace gate, "What is the matter with you?" β
Before I finished speaking, a dirty old man knelt down in front of me with a puff, kowtowing like pounding rice, and I exclaimed: "You still want to apprentice at such an old age?" β
The old man said with tears in his eyes: "The little old man has fled here, he is cold and hungry and desperate, so he begs the two sword gods for charity." As soon as he said this, Hula surrounded a group of Hanako and said, "Be merciful." β
I was speechless and said, "Why do you still need money for this?" I inadvertently glanced at the captain, and the captain immediately said vigilantly: "Don't look at me, I have given you all the money on me!" β
I asked a fat man in a satin kaftan next to me, "You're also here to ask for money?" β
The fat man smiled and said, "My daughter-in-law is 7 months pregnant, and I want to ask the two sword gods to calculate whether they are male or female." β
I broke down and said, "Our sword god and the bodhisattva are not the same thing!" β
The people behind me didn't care what I said, they talked to themselves indiscriminately, some begged for food, some begged for money, some asked for divination, and more were to join in the fun, I heard that the emperor did not live in the palace, and hoped to enter the palace to have a look...... I had a plan and discussed with the captain: "I'll help you make some extra money, since the people want to go into the palace to see, let's give them a tour of the palace, and each person will have a ticket for one or two silver......"
Before I finished speaking, the captain's face had turned from red to white, and he said categorically: "What are you kidding?" Is the forbidden land of the palace a place where you do business? β
I pouted and said, "I don't want money, I see that you guys are working hard to help you earn some overtime pay, what are you afraid of when you let them in?" β
"No way!"
I pointed to the more than 1,000 people and said, "Then you can do it, I can't control them if they don't leave." β
"This ......"
I consulted and said, "Otherwise, you can let them go around outside the Jianji Palace, and other places will not be open for the time being, or the money will be appropriate." β
The captain's face turned from white to black again, and he stomped his feet and said, "What did I do in my last life!" β
I stood on the steps and waved my hands and said, "Folks, great news, the palace is open today as an exception, one or two silver per person, and those who want to enter line up." β
As soon as the people heard that there was such a good thing, and it didn't matter what they were here for, there were two long lines at the bottom of the stairs in a moment, and I commanded a few guards to collect the money, and the rest went inside to guard the various paths, and at this point, the guards of the Hagis Palace were completely turned into security guards...... The people who paid the money went inside, and I instructed one by one at the door: "Only the outside of the Jianji Hall is open, no spitting, and your own garbage is taken away." β
The guards were not very happy at first, but after receiving a few hundred taels of silver, their faces turned rosy...... I said, "You can't eat alone, it looks like today's tickets are expected to exceed 10,000, don't forget to give points to your father-in-law and palace maids." β
The common people just entered the palace, one by one fresh and a little cautious, looking at the square in front of the palace, there were a few guards guarding the door of the Jianji Palace, and there were a few people who looked like they were standing at the door, taking out the pen, ink, paper, inkstone, looking inside and drawing a stroke, I stretched out my hand and pointed: "Those few, take pictures and collect money!" β
As soon as the news spread, the people nearby flocked to it, and the last queue was longer than the Spring Festival ticket purchase, so I came up with an idea to ask the guards to draw a passage outside the Jianji Hall with a rope, and people could only follow the rope to visit a circle after they came in, and they couldn't stay anymore...... By the time the head of the head was slanted to the west, the ticket revenue really exceeded 10,000. But there is a problem that the flowers within a radius of dozens of miles have heard the wind and rushed to come, probably because of the heart of sharing the spoils, I stood behind a pile of silver, opened my arms and said: "This money can not be given to you, who knows if you are really poor or fake poor?" β
Su Jing said: "This is easy to do. She said to the big man, "I have to entrust you with something." β
Dahan hurriedly said: "Although the master orders, the apprentice's name is Hu Dazhuang." β
Su Jing smiled slightly and said: "I didn't promise to accept you as an apprentice - you take 500 taels of silver out to open a porridge shed nearby, this money is earmarked, and it can't be given to others." β
Hu Dazhuang said: "Don't worry, Master." β
I sighed: "I can't imagine that I can do something good for the local people by visiting Hagis." β
Su Jing smiled: "Who let people treat us as bodhisattvas? β
Hu Dazhuang patted his ass and said: "Master is originally a bodhisattva, it seems that this martial arts study is also related to character, I have to remember this." β
Su Jing said lightly: "Good character is certainly related to martial arts in the future, but it is not directly related to learning martial arts, and there are many masters of moral corruption among the people I know." β
Hu Dazhuang said: "Master's words are profound! β
I glanced at him and said, "Eh, I said I forgot to ask you, we are both sword gods, why do you only worship her and not me?" β
Hu Dazhuang rolled his eyes and said: "When my master became famous, I didn't have you, and I saw that you were out of tune, and you had no ability to do anything." β
I sighed and said, "There are really people who only recognize the old brands." I stabbed Su Jing and said, "You don't accept apprentices, does it have anything to do with Kumei's disbelief in you?" β
Su Jing suddenly covered his mouth and smiled: "Hu Dazhuang has a sentence that is really right, you are really out of tune." β
I was stunned and said, "Why am I out of tune?" β
"Make people's palaces blunt into a scenic spot, I don't know if Ma Jiyue will be angry if he knows about it?"
"It's best to be angry, so we don't have to do it."
Su Jing stood up with his hands and said: "Now I am only worried about one thing, now that the emperor of Hegis is missing, and all the officials are hiding, it won't be long before this continues, I'm afraid that the society will be in turmoil." β
I said, "It's none of our business if there's turmoil, and Hegis isn't a daughter country." β
Su Jing shook his head slightly and said, "That's not the case, once there is chaos, it will be the people who suffer." β
I was speechless, "Have you really become a bodhisattva?" β
Su Jing said seriously: "We are not fighting to destroy anyone, but to eliminate the war, you have also seen the people of Hejis, they are also ordinary people with joys, sorrows and sorrows, and there is no difference between them and the people of the daughter country and the Honglie Empire." β
I also said very seriously: "If I didn't know who you are, I would have to take a brick and lift your faceβthat's too pretentious!" β
